Beautiful hotel

I definitely recommend the Mills house to anyone considering a wedding there. The renovations to the rooms and lobby are beautiful. The food was delicious and all the staff were very attentive. Eric was a pleasure to work with. He listened to all my questions, concerns and walked me through all the details to ensure it was everything I had envisioned. Mary was also very thoughtful in following up to make sure we had a gray time. Thank you again for making it a wonderful night!

Great experience at the Mills House

The Mills House did a spectacular job making our wedding weekend a total joy and success. They were very easy to work with from the start in 2019, through a rescheduling due to COVID, and finally to the wedding in April of 2022. We hosted a welcome party, wedding/reception, and Sunday brunch. The food, service, and ambiance were all excellent. Kaitlyn assured us that once the planning was done, all we needed to do was show up and she was totally correct!

Incredible Wedding Venue

Everything about our wedding was perfect thanks to the entire staff at The Mills House, specifically Katelin Hancock! We are from Philadelphia and booked and planned our entire wedding without seeing the Hotel. Katelin was so accommodating with FaceTime appointments and helped to make sure we were comfortable booking. Her communication was seamless, friendly and prompt. I trusted her immensely due to how well she communicated with us. Planning the wedding was a breeze. While the hotel has great wedding packages to offer, they were always flexible if we had questions whether it be around hors d'oeuvres selections, food allergies, beverage selections, floor plans, etc. I always felt true attention and care to make sure we had the wedding we envisioned. The Hotel is stunningly beautiful, the rooms are clean and updated (a bit small but that's okay), the front desk was SO friendly to all of our guests, the restaurant and bar staff were kind and attentive, housekeeping staff was fast and very friendly, and the location in downtown Charleston is perfect. The reservations team was extremely helpful with our room block details, and Danielle and Patty were always quick to respond. Our wedding was for only about 55 guests, so our ceremony was on the Meeting Street Terrace, Cocktail Hour in Queen Street Gallery and reception in the Signer's Ballroom. All spaces were well maintained and beautiful. The banquet staff was extremely friendly and the food was fantastic. The server who took care of us at the sweetheart table was so polite and professional and made sure we always had what we needed before we asked. The valet/bellmen were also so helpful and patient as my husband and I had a lot to carry in when we first arrived. I can't say enough positive things about The Mills House and especially Katelin, along with the rest of the staff. I highly recommend hosting your wedding here!
